Rest as Resistance

Webinar Description

In today’s always-on workplace, leaders and teams are burning out at unprecedented rates. The pressure to “do more with less” often leaves little space for the reflection, recovery, and creativity that drive sustainable performance. Rest is not the opposite of productivity — it’s the foundation of it. This interactive webinar reframes rest as a strategic leadership tool and a cultural act of resistance against burnout. Participants will learn how intentional pauses strengthen resilience, foster innovation, and model healthier work practices across the organization.
